harden is no doubt a great player but you couldn't bank your future with four highly paid players. you gotta leave a little cap space for some talents. okc is not a big market team so they wanna avoid paying luxury tax as much as possible. i think they got some good future assets with the trade. kevin martin may not be a perfect replacement for harden but he sure brings some shooting to okc. leave the defense to thabo i guess. those future picks could still be traded elsewhere in exchange for some other talents when the right deal comes. i don't have idea on jeremy lamb but he's a top 12 picks so i guess there's something in him.
